4.1.7 Forum is slow, I suspect file version

The files you highlighted are not part of vbulletin. There are ones that have similar names as php files though. I doubt this is what is slowing down your forum.

Also, you posted this in the 3.8 forum.

When you download vBulletin you can choose the file extensions of the files. Most people choose .php because that is what works on most setups. However some servers can be made to work with .htm or .html files- in this case this user is using .htm files.

Just pretend they are php files for troubleshooting purposes.

The socialgroup file would say that if you applied the recent patch - if so that is normal.

If you haven't edited forum and index I would suggest to copy the original files over from the original install package- but that wouldn't slow down your entire forum,

Have you made any recent changes? Link to your site?

PS- Moving to the 4.x forums (was in 3.8).

Yeah, the forum is running on HTM extention, no issues here. Tried replacing both forum.htm and index.htm, still same message while suspecting file versions.

Yes sociagroupmessage.htm was updated due to recent patch.

OK well those files wouldn't be slowing your system down.
